Abandoned Fossil Car Stuff…
Here: Horfield 2006 (and one of the centre of brizzy at the moment). I’m dead pleased with the new camera – the light was very wintery today – very white and bright, no warmth to it. Very clean. Anyway, I took the camera and myself down to the Horfield Regeneration Project and spent a couple…

Get me the fuck out of this country…
And there I was laughing at the US.

Oh Great Journal Readers
What do you do when you split up with someone and you’re left with letters and… cards… and (in this case) stories? I never know what to do with this stuff; I don’t want to throw it away, because it means a lot even after the fact, but… I never know what to do with…

It’s 8:33 in Vancovuer
You know when you’re having a sucky day… it’s when some 80 year old biddy (and yes, I mean that in the most derogatory sense I can come up with) accosts you when you park. Let’s just make this clear, I didn’t park outside her house, I parked on a street with no parking regulations…

Tired
So… My mum’s sick – again – with bronchitis. This is not good. This is the third time; she says I shouldn’t go home, she’s got antibiotics… But, I’m worried. She’s very ill. I’m tired but I don’t feel like going to bed. I dunno why. I want to talk to people, but I really…

The *best* post
So, I got Rachie’s letter today, and her painting. It *rocks*. I’m a bit unsure about my framing idea now – I’m thinking maybe something plainer would be better, I need to get the wood I was thinking of and look at it by the wood, we’ll see. I might go and do that tomorrow…

But that makes no sense…
Frustrating in the extreme… Canada will recognise and issue a Canadian licence to holders of American, Austrian, German, Swiss, Japanese or South Korean licences. You’ll note the distinct and frustrating lack of the UK from that list. Now, what’s even more frustrating is that as part of the European Union, Austria will directly convert a…

Mr Lucas, thou art damned.
So, I spent the morning doing a variety of tasks, mostly spraying grapefruit juice over my keyboard, desk and monitor. Done that well… …then we got on to swimming, had a very nice swim thankyou very much. …and then we spent 20 minutes cleaning connectors around my indicator. See, car electrics work like this: the…

Argh! Stop being stupid!
*sigh* Why is it that all of the western countries seem to be following each other in a desparate race to flush their civil liberties and culture down the toilet faster than anyone else? Or, as I’m feeling: “how dare Canada elect a Conservative government after I’ve decided I want to move there”. Apologies to…

Productive
Today I’ve been fairly productive, I’ve done Laundry (mmm, clean uniforms for tomorrow), mailed the British Colombia car insurance / registration people (heh, see, I’ve just gleaned something important about insurance in BC, I’m getting there… It’s hard though, because I forget how utterly different different countries are. And I’ve started to realise that just…
